This is not a country bashing, just stating what my personal taste's in accent's are. I was diving with some people the other day and had about five different accent's all happening at once. I'ts funny how you like some accent's and other's can be hard on the ear's. I was listening to an Irish girl talking ( This is my fav) and found myself unwittingly just staring at her as she spoke (might have looked a bit creepy but not intended ) Just nothing sounds better than a Irish or Scottish girl speaking with a strong accent. I also think that the American Southern accent in children is also as cute as can be. I'm not a fan of Vietnamese or the South African accent nothing to do with the people just don't like the accent. We ozzy's have next to no accent :) so do you have a favourite and what is it.
 
I was once speaking with an English exchange student, and she was complaining that nobody ever listens to her because she is forign, they hear the accent and not what she is saying. To prover her point, she said her roomate once did an oral presentation in class of about 10 minutes, as I recall, in english cockney rhyming slang, and got away with it becasue nobody was listening to what she was saying. crazy

Oh and you ozzies have one of the hardest accents to immitate, I do it so poorly that I almost refuse to do it in public.
